Human Rights Education project is a non-profit organization that encourages grassroots non-governmental organizations to participate in the movement for educating the public about human rights. Organizations do this simply and without cost by adopting a human rights quotation and adding it to their website, letterhead, and brochures. The website contains all necessary information; specialists are available online to assist you.

The Project's Human Rights Educators

When the time comes to obtain a recommendation for adopting a human
rights quotation, the NGO contacts one of the Project's human
rights educators directly.

The Project's human rights educator will talk with your
organization, usually via e-mail. Your organization will be asked
to give the human rights educator an understanding of the organization's
goal and membership. On that basis, the educator will be able to
suggest which human rights quotation seems well-suited to your organization.

After deciding which human rights quotation it will adopt, the organization then proceeds to print the quotation on its letterhead, fund-raising mailers, brochures, posters, tee-shirts, on its website, and in other logical locations. In that way, as the organization distributes its organizational messages, it is at the same time educating about human rights. This basic form of education happens every time the organization sends out a letter -- or an email - or hands out its brochure - or sells a tee-shirt, with a human right quotation printed on it.

It's as simple at that. There are no costs.
